You May Find Yourself...

Known across the globe for targeting artworks and cultural events with non-violent direct action, Just Stop Oil supporters have continued to engage with contemporary artists, academics and activists.

Artists and collectors, such as Gavin Turk, Rut Blees Luxemburg, Jamie Reid, William Mackinnon, Peter Kennard, Boy George and more will showcase their works in support of Just Stop Oil’s demand: that the British government immediately halts all new fossil fuel licensing and consents. 

Standing with them are FILET space, The Koppel Project, The Auction Collective, and the Vivienne Foundation. 

Jeremy Till, Former Head of Central Saint Martins and Pro Vice-Chancellor of University of the Arts London said: 

“Just Stop Oil has utilised art in their activism brilliantly – the soup on sunflowers and the searing after image of orange powder on the green baize snooker table. The wonderful artists contributing to this auction in solidarity are part of that protest.” 

Rebecca Marcus-Monks, Director Of Operations at The Koppel Project said:

“The Koppel Project is committed to its mission of fostering meaningful artistic dialogue. Supporting the "You May Find Yourself…" intervention is a natural extension of our dedication to driving positive change through art. By hosting this, we emphasise our role as a catalyst for transformative conversations. This opportunity allows us to leverage our platform to raise awareness and engage audiences towards a sustainable future where creativity and environmental consciousness coexist harmoniously.”

Brenna Horrox, Curator at FILET space said: 

“This is an important intervention to show the art community stands with climate activists in the fight against further environmental exploitation and vice versa that climate activists value art and artists and want art to be part of the future."

Individual artists and art institutions are coming together at this critical moment to send a clear message to the British government - we resist as one.

This is where we find ourselves, living at a crisis point that will birth a new age. This is an intervention. And this is just the beginning.
